Vintage-Kristall-Präsidenten-Stielglas, wahrscheinlich aus der LBJ-Ära im Weißen Haus oder Bankett. Sie sind alle sehr sauber, ohne Risse, Chips, Kratzer, nahezu perfektes bis perfektes Gold. Ich versuche immer noch, diese zu recherchieren. Ich weiß, dass sie ein gewisses Alter aufweisen. Ich bin sehr beschäftigt und werde es wahrscheinlich vergessen, aber zumindest kann ich sie vorerst sicher aus dem Weg räumen. Die Tatsache, dass es sich um einen Teilsatz aus 3, 3 und 4 handelt, festigt mein Vertrauen in diese. LBJ stammte aus Texas und seine Frau Lady Bird Johnson kam nach LBJs Tod hierher nach Austin und verstarb hier. Die größten sind 8,25-Zoll-Wasserkelche. Dabei handelt es sich um sehr feine handgefertigte Kristallgläser, die von ebenso guter Qualität sind wie alle anderen (Baccarat, Moser, St. Louis, Waterford usw.), aber ich konnte keine Markierungen finden. Ich würde mich über Beweise zu diesem Zeitraum freuen, unabhängig vom Ergebnis, vielen Dank im Voraus. Ich habe ein paar Bücher bestellt und werde versuchen, Zeit für einen Besuch in der LBJ-Bibliothek zu finden. Nach umfangreicher Suche kann ich keine andere Brille finden, die mit dieser identisch ist und online verkauft oder zum Verkauf angeboten wird. Wenn man bedenkt, dass einzelne Teller aus Bill Clintons Service über 5.000 US-Dollar eingebracht haben, sind diese ein Schnäppchen, wenn sie das sind, was ich denke.

No older jewelry is going to be exactly 92.5% silver, some a little over, some a little under. It wasn't an exact thing with handmade jewelry. I've seen thousands of pieces xrf'd to prove this.

vintage Frank Patania Thunderbird Shop "Caballeros del Sol" Sterling/turquoise bolo tie. Solid sterling silver, weight and measurements in pics (scale tared out with containter, weight shown is just the bolo). Fully functional with overall attractive appearance. 38" total length. In 1927 Italian immigrant Frank Patania Sr. opened the Thunderbird Shop in Santa Fe which sold Native American handmade arts and crafts. Patania, a trained goldsmith and fine jewelry designer, had become enamored with Native American jewelry. He quickly turned his talents to designing and fabricating sterling silver and turquoise jewelry inspired by Native designs, developing a new type of Southwest jewelry, termed “Thunderbird style which combined Mediterranean elegance with traditional Native American materials. He became known for his exquisite craftsmanship and unique jewelry designs which displayed great attention to detail. As his business grew, Patania required assistance in the workshop and in 1932 hired Charles Begay, a skilled Navajo silversmith. He became the first of many Native Americans to work for the Patanias as silversmiths in the Thunderbird Shop in Santa Fe, and later also in Tucson. Some of these artists remained employed until retirement, while others, after becoming versed in the Thunderbird style, departed to work on their own, carrying with them the influence and inspiration of Patania family designs. Those who carried the Thunderbird style into their own successful careers were Lewis Lomay, Julian Lovato, Jimmie Herald and Harry Sakyesva, whose talents and body of work still resonate long after their passing. The history of the Cabaleros Del Sol- As retold by charter members Schuy Lininger and Stub Ashcraft In the mid 1920s, two doctors named Huett and Kline who specialized in the care of tubercular (TB) patients saw the need to begin touting the great dry heat of Tucson as the perfect place to be for people with lung problems. This need along with the desire of Tucson business people to get more people to visit and move to The Old Pueblo eventually evolved into an organization called the Tucson Sunshine Climate Club. Many years later, the visitors & Convention Bureau was added to the professional heading. For the next 37 years (1926- 1963), the Sunshine Climate Club grew as the premier organization to bring and develop new business to Tucson. The organization was funded in part by both the city of Tucson and Pima County. Some of the greatest early “City Fathers of Tucson served this group. As the Chamber of Commerce grew both the City and County decided to quit funding the Sunshine Climate Club as they felt there were some overlapping between the two organizations. So in 1963, two key people- Frank Drachman and Roy Miller convinced the entire Board of Directors of the Sunshine Climate Club to dissolve their Club and become a standing committee in the Tucson Chamber of Commerce. The group would be call the Caballeros Del Sol and Roy Miller (who ran the J.C. Penney store downtown) would become the first El Jefe. They put sunshine in cans, models in cactus “bathing suits and Tucson in the underwood of every travel writer in the country. “Nobody did the things we did to promote tourism says C.L. “Stubs Ashcraft, general manger back in the ‘50s of the old Tucson Sunshine Climate Club. Who else would: : Scoop out the tops of two saguaro cactus arms, fashion them into a “bra, and have the end result modeled by a local high school girl? : Welcome the Cleveland Indians to town with smoke signals from atop “A Mountain? : Get the superintendent of Saguaro National Monument to draw beer from a cactus? How you gonna get “em out to the desert? With sunshine, sex and rootin tootin atmosphere. For 40 years, that was the winning formula used by the Tucson Sunshine Climate Club to bring visitors to town- until a merger put an end to all the good times. It began with a rivalry. “By 1920, Phoenixs population was the larger than Tucsons, says Roy P. Drachman, general manager of the Sunshine Climate Club, 1939- 1945. Naturally says Drachman, this “annoyed a few Tucson businessman. So car dealers Monte Mansfield and L.C. “Jessie James decided to form an organization to promote tourism. In 1922, the Tucson Sunshine Climate Club held its first meeting. Far from feeling usurped, the Chamber of Commerce welcomed the move, says Drachman. “There was a lot of overlap. Many of the same members served on both boards. Money came from local businesses, which bought up memberships, and from the city and county, which helped pay for advertising in publications across the country. Back then, Tucson was still considered a health mecca. “I think we spent more money in the American Medical Association Journal than any other publication, says Drachman. When he took over as manager in 1939, Drachman hired two photographers, Chuck Abbot and Robert Burns, who took pictures of prominent folk visiting the desert and then sent the photos to various news organizations, where they received wide play. “We had a clipping service, says Drachman. “We kept big sheets of brown paper covered with clippings we got back from photos we had sent out. The club also co- sponsored a modeling club, using high school girls, mainly from Tucson High, to sell the Old Pueblo. “Wed put them in a pair of boots, shorts, shirt and a hat and send them out in the desert with Ray Manley, says Ashcraft. “Wed put them up against a cactus or in a field of poppies, anything for publicity. The Clubs finest hour for cheesecake however, probably came during Drachmans reign. “We hollowed the tops out of a saguaro cactus and made a bra, says Drachman.“Then we took prickly pear cactus pads and cut all the thorns off and hung them on wire for a skirt. Then we put a model from Tucson High in that outfit and took her picture. Life magazine printed it, full page. By the time Ashcraft came on board as the general manager in 1952, the publicity machine was in high gear. “I used to lie awake at nights thinking of things to do. Such as passing out cans of “sunshine. Or posing a model in a $ 3,500.00 pair of mink “jeans. Or having the Cleveland Indians pull a stagecoach with their manager on board, cracking the whip. Naturally all of this was photographed for play in the Eastern papers. Ashcrafts golden moment may have come in 1955, when a group of travel writers arrived in town on a junket sponsored by American Airlines. “First thing we did was take them downtown and get them outfitted with jeans, shirts, boots and a hat, says Ashcraft. Then they took them to the Forty Niners Ranch for a party. “The next morning, most of these folks had hangovers like you couldnt believe, says Ashcraft. “Then we got them up on horses for a ride to Saguaro National Monument. By the time we got them there, their tongues were hanging out by a mile. What the writers didnt know was that a chuck wagon filled with draft beer had been set up at the monument. Standing next to the chuck wagon was a mannequin in a squaw dress, and next to the mannequin was a saguaro cactus, with a thin tube running through it. The tube was a conduit, allowing beer to flow from a keg in the chuck wagon to a spigot on the outside of the cactus. “After we got there, we had John Lewis, who was the superintendent of the monument, give this talk on the flora and the fauna of the desert, says Ashcraft. “It was the most boring thing you had ever heard. Then he bent over and the mannequins hand fell on the spigot and the beer started to flow. You should have seen the eyes of those travel writers. As with most of the clubs stunts, this one, says Ashcraft, followed the script “right down to a gnats eyebrow. Such was not the case, however, the day the club welcomed the Cleveland Indians to town with a smoke- signal greeting. “Every year when the Cleveland Indians came to town for spring training, we tried to top what we had done the year before, says Ashcraft. “So I thought, ‘Ah, lets welcome ‘em with smoke signals. “I went down to Indian Village Trading Post. They had an Indian there who did sand painting, and I said, ‘Freddy I dont remember his last name- ‘Do you know how to make smoke signals? He said yes, ‘Sure, so we arranged it. Ashcraft also arranged for American Airlines, which was bringing the team to town, to fly directly over “A Mountain where the signals would be sent. The day arrived. “It was a nasty damn day, recalls Ashcraft. “The wind must have been blowing about 100 miles per hour. And of course we had invited the local press and photographers there. Ray Manley was there and for some reason he had brought along a couple of old tires. It never dawned on any of us the consequences of what we were about to do. “So we got the fire started and Ray threw the tires on it and the black smoke started pouring out. Then the sheriffs car came up the road, its lights blinking. They didnt want to come all the way up, and they were hollering at us to come down. We were scared to death. “Well, people were calling all over. “A Mountain used to be a volcano and people thought it was erupting again. “Anyway, the time came for the plane to come over. Freddy has the blanket. Here comes the plane. Freddy and his friend put the blanket down over the tire- and it burned a hole right in the middle of the damned blanket. “I said, ‘Freddy, what in the hell happened? He said, ‘I forgot. We were supposed to wet the blanket. In 1962, the Tucson Sunshine Climate Club merged with the Chamber of Commerce Industrial Development Board, in an effort to strengthen the chamber and do away with duplication of effort. “That killed the club, says Ashcraft. But not its past deeds. “When we started out, we were getting the tourists, says Ashcraft. “They liked it and came back as winter visitors. Then they decide to retire here. We had businessmen come here, decide to have a convention, then relocate their businesses here. Now, there isnt the Western atmosphere anymore. Asked if perhaps the Tucson Sunshine Climate Club did its job to well, Ashcraft sits and reflects by the pool of a midtown hotel, a hundred feet away from the rush of the traffic along Alvernon Way. Finally, the words come: “If I could do it all over again, I wouldnt do it. I loved the Old Pueblo.

Französische Vintage-Küchenkanister aus rot-weißer Emaille aus Granit von Cafe, Sucre, Chicoree, ca. Mitte des 20. Jahrhunderts. Cooles Vintage-Set, sie waren auf der Basis markiert, aber es sieht so aus, als hätte jemand die Markierungen weggekratzt. Ich habe das im Laufe der Jahre bei vielen Dingen gesehen. Ich habe unmarkiertes Steuben-Glas mit der Signatur Tiffany gefunden und umgekehrt, kann es mir nicht immer erklären. Egal, sie sind süß und haben ein gewisses Alter an sich. Schöne, praktische Alltagsgrößen, wobei die größte 6" hoch x 4,25" breit ist. B36

Maße und Gewicht sollten in den Bildern angezeigt werden, sofern in der Auflistung nicht anders beschrieben. Wenn ich ein Schmuckstück „Retro“ nenne, meine ich das letzte Viertel des 20.

Vintage Gaumers Sterling Tiger‘s Eye belt buckle - Red Bluff CA artist. Solid sterling silver, Marked as shown. Weight and measurements in pics. Nice buckle circa last quarter of the 20th century. Gaumers Jewelry has been in business since 1967. Founded in partnership between Al and Mabel Gaumer and their son John and his wife Terry, the business has continued to grow with the addition of a third generation of jewelers and rockhounds through Bill Gaumer. Gaumers carries a great selection of fine gold and silver jewelry, original hand-crafted jewelry, semiprecious and precious stones, lapidary equipment and jewelry-making supplies. The giftware portion of the business offers books, coasters, vases, unique decorative items and beautiful hand-crafted jewelry boxes. The Gaumer family interest in gems and minerals has been actively pursued for four generations as John O. Gaumer was a gold miner in Northern California for 25 years. His son Al continued the tradition with formal education in the field of mining engineering before returning to gold mining with his father and a lifelong pursuit of prospecting and rockhounding throughout the western United States. The family passion for rocks turned a hobby into a full time business when John and Terry decided to open a store utilizing the familys extensive rock collection and Johns jewelry making skills. This combination served Tehama County until 1993, when Bill came on board and really shook things up. Four years later, the business remodeled, adding an 800 square foot mineral and mining museum and additional retail and manufacturing space. In 1999, Bill finished his course work with the Gemological Institute of America (GIA) and received the prestigious Graduate Gemologist diploma. Gaumers Mineral and Mining Museum showcases over fifty years and four generations of collecting. There are beautiful and rare gem and mineral specimens from around the world, stone carvings, fossils, Native American artifacts, a fluorescent mineral display, and a detailed replica of an old mine tunnel complete with ore car, tracks and mining equipment. The free museum is open to the public during normal business hours. Group tours are available for schools and special interest groups.

Vintage Deutschland Sterling Emaille Markasit Schiffsnadel und Thai Schildkröte. Verkaufe beide zusammen, weil meine Frau sie so fotografiert hat. Das Schiff ist offensichtlich älter als die Schildkröte, beide aus Sterlingsilber. Die Segel auf dem Schiff sehen ein wenig verwittert aus. Ich bin mir nicht sicher, ob das beabsichtigt ist oder nicht, ehrlich gesagt kann ich es nicht sagen. Insgesamt 14,4 Gramm. Judith und ihr Ehemann Jack Rosenberg gründeten 1969 die Firma Judith Jack, als ihnen klar wurde, dass nur sehr wenig Markasit-Nachlassschmuck verfügbar war. Sie hatten antike Stücke verkauft und konnten der Nachfrage ihrer Käufer nach diesem wunderschönen viktorianisch inspirierten Schmuck nicht nachkommen. Der exquisite Stil und die Qualität machten Judith Jack zur führenden Marke für Markasit-Modeschmuck und führten dazu, dass Judith in den USA zur Königin des Markasits ernannt wurde
